When completing the TA6 Property Information Form, there are three key principles to keep in mind:
Your answers should be based solely on your own knowledge of the property. It is important that the information provided is accurate and complete. If you are unsure of the answer to a question, use the “Not Known” option where available, rather than making assumptions or providing information that may be incorrect.
The form is designed to provide buyers with a clear picture of the property, including any matters that may affect their decision to proceed. It forms an important part of the conveyancing process, requiring sellers to provide information about the property to enable buyers to make an informed decision before proceeding with their purchase.
Where available, supporting documents should be provided to support the information contained in the form. These may include planning permissions, building regulations approvals, guarantees and warranties, FENSA certificates for replacement windows and doors, electrical installation certificates, gas safety records, and other relevant property documents. Providing these documents at an early stage can help avoid delays and additional enquiries during the conveyancing process.
Taking the time to complete the TA6 Property Information Form carefully and accurately can help ensure a smoother transaction and reduce the risk of disputes arising later in the conveyancing process. By following the key principles above, you can ensure that your replies are truthful, disclose any known issues affecting the property, and provide supporting documentation wherever available. Being open and transparent from the outset helps buyers make informed decisions, reduces the likelihood of delays or further enquiries, and can minimise the risk of disputes or claims after completion.
